The log messages "Your Guard" make produce confusion, Looking at the
latest code base I see the string "Your Guard" recurring.
Does this string actually refer to a Guard the user is responsible for
operating and maintaining? Or does it refer to the guard the Tor client
is connecting to on its first hop in the circuit? If it is not a guard
operated by the person running the Tor client, then perhaps the string
ought to read "The Guard" instead of "Your Guard".
